Saturday April 14 ... 12 Month Doctor Visit

We were smart and made this appointment for 11am instead of 8am, which means mommy got to sleep in. We also didn't get a picture of this one, since he spent most of the time screaming.

He was fine until the nurse came in and FORCED me to lay him down on the measuring tape AND the scale! EVIL!!! Then the doctor came in and before he even touched the baby, Rowan was SCREAMING and trying to run away. The doctor was so sweet, and made sure he had the shots ready to go, and we sat quietly and chatted before the exam. "I've done this before," he said.

Stats:
Weight = 18.5 lbs
Height = 28.5
Head = 18-ish?

Doctor was impressed that we were walking and eating all sorts of things. He's so chill that nothing really phases him though. "This is the point where babies start to get hurt and poisoned, walking around and reaching for things." Oh, ok. nbd.

As expected, the Vaccination Demons arrived that night and no one slept well. Though the rest of Saturday was great, and we went to lunch and babywearing club!

About Me and my Mommy

Mommy is not so good about writing things in a baby book, but as a child, loved reading the one Gramma had kept for her. A digital baby book can be updated with photos and videos without actually printing anything, and can be shared with everyone . . . even Gramma!

Rowan, Mommy, Daddy, and Gipper the pug live in Queens, New York. Daddy is an engineer and loves Notre Dame football and the Red Sox. Mommy works for Nickelodeon and loves to knit (when she has two hands free). Gipper the pug is taking her job as "nana" very seriously and likes to look after and sniff the baby. So far, baby Rowan loves to eat and poop and cry.
